Alio™ Text Features

Alio™ Text – a workhorse typeface Alio Text does not only look great as a display type, but also it has been optimized for the high legibility and readability at small sizes. The Text family features taller x-height, wider letter spacing and more pronounced accents than the Pros. We also cut down from 6 weights/12 styles to 4 weights/8 styles to maximize the weight contrasts in small type.

Whether your designs call for all caps, title case, sentence case or all lowercase, Alio Text has got you covered with the case-sensitive punctuations. No more baseline shift all your punctuations.

Alio Text packs with Open-type features. Many of which are shared with its siblings, Alio Pro. Here are a few examples, both the Text and the Pro recognize fractions vs. dates. Both features several alternate legal symbol positions (3 in Alio Text; 5 in Alio Pro).
